local matchmaker losing it over yet another unrealistic demand from the clientele 🤣🤣

In a fic (Beginning of the End) in my Nameless AU, I've mentioned in chapter 8 that WWX once pranked the sect leaders during a conference by making them each a paperman that follows them around imitating them :D

Bamboo forest.

this man is an ALIEN. he meets Batman AS AN ALIEN BEING. imagine knowing Superman for like, a year or so, enough that this friendship is solidifying, and his age/birthday comes up (maybe because he insisted on getting something small for Bruce's more publicly known birthday!) and this adult alien who is NOT BEYOND pulling petty shit when it's harmless and funny, says with a straight face and no explanation, that he's six years old. what is bruce supposed to do with that? maybe kryptonians age differently! clark could draw it out for a while, letting Bruce think he's younger than Robin! and Bruce wouldn't have a good reason to disbelieve it unless he like, went digging for Clark's high school records or something (which he MIGHT do but then maybe he's trying to respect a little of the privacy of the one friend he managed to make, pre-intense paranoia days).

"I'm six!"

AND BRUCE IS LIKE

I wish to god I was joking or exaggerating but this is just factual beatles lore I'm so sorry for reblogging this for the 80th time op but the people need to know

While this isn't news to anyone who works in this space, it is useful to have this water-is-wet research to affirm that Indigenous knowledge and land management are extremely effective at storing carbon and protecting biodiversity.

I want to draw special attention to this part of the article:

I get a fair number of asks and comments on my posts expressing sentiments like "human beings are a plague on this Earth", "humans ruin everything, we deserve to be wiped out", "humanity is inherently selfish, evil, and irredeemable".

I don't think the folks saying these things have bad intentions, I know their words come from a place of very understandable pain, fear, and anger. But to act as though humanity's impact on nature is inherently damaging and extractive is to erase thousands of years of Indigenous stewardship of nature. These ecosystems are thriving because there are humans living there.

I LOOK AT ITS WIKIPEDIA PAGE AND I JUDGE!

Believe it or not, I actually had that one in my ‘based on games’ category since there at least does seem to be a first game one can point to… sort of… but I think you’re right that it does fit my criteria of “Its wikipedia page gives me a major headache”. I now have 6 in my ??? category. They are:

Fate/stay night

Cardfight!! Vanguard

.hack/SIGN

Love Live! School Idol Project

Kagerou Days

Tsukiuta.

(I know it’s really fate/whatthefuckever and hack/allofthethings, but these are the versions of the names that have the fic.)

The Fake Music Group Tie In Hot Mess seems to be a popular form of multimedia property. LOL.

ETA: Oops, I missed several headache-inducing music franchises:

Love Live! Sunshine!!

Shoujo Kageki Revue Starlight

Does UmaMusume count as a “Fake Music Group Tie In Hot Mess” if they’re based on real horses and the music part is extremely incidental 🤔

I haven’t looked lately, but my sense is that the Japanese industry is still often operating in its traditional way where the very biggest fandoms are coming from a Weekly Jump series that got a TV anime. A few are coming from light novels, but a webnovel or online comic origin is less common, even if we don’t take ‘webtoon’ as definitionally Korean.
